(Slgneol t YsTION. . The Young Roscius, during leer passage out, had, in a most violent gale, nearly foundered, thrown her guns overboard, and was in such a state, that it was found unsafe to send her back to England, and rmut have been condemned. I therefore in, _ teneled to fit her to cruize against the 'blockading Squadron, to clear the wav for the ships under my orders, in pursuance of Orders of Council, t nth Nov. 1806, and tath Juiy tBO7 ; but &difficulty arose where to procure guns. In stating this to the President, he offered to buy her, fit her and send tor out for that purpose, for which , she was parti enlarly adapted, though out of repair, as the sea is Very smooth, and the winds very light in that quar ter. The pilbposals of the President, HaNav Oats- TOPHE, were accepted, the price paid, and I had to . provide for the returns not only of the said price, but of her cargo of Britiah manufaaures, and of the car-, Ves of the HoPelve ll ,.Eliza, Ben Lomond, and Fanny. There not being produce sudieient at the Cape at that tune, all those Ships consigned to my care, ex cept the Hopewell, were to have run down from tape Fraticak io Gonaives, to take in their cargoes of coircts and cotton. When going down, Ships fn - the. Cope must pass through the Channel of Tortuga, rouud Cape Nichola Mole, and this, though a very short passage, is, however, a very dangerous one, as it not only swarms with French and Spapish rrivateers from Cuba, but another impediment of a more novel kind .11(1 exist at the time when 1 was_ there, and had such large interests under my dire- Pszsos, the rival of President Cult:mints, ha sent a tiotilla of armed Schooners, Cutters, an Barges, in the very Channel of Tortuga, where he already had repeatedly sent many Expeditions, to land on the barren spots betoeen Cape Nicht)la Mole, a few hundred men, in order to deceive the public, and especially the British Government, pre. Vnding his possessing those parted CiIaISTOPIIZ'S dominions, and that be. was able to Stir insurrections in his favour among his Mulatto friends in that quar, tec.. This was not the enly obje& of Pyrtoo's Expeditions to the North, which had before been ;crushed to the last man twice in the year 1807, He and his Senate, acting according to their grand ori ginal, NApoLzoo, had passed this blockading law, by tae provisions of which the ports submitted to CIIKISTOPLIE are declared to be in a state of blockade, and Letters of Marqoe granted to: the Flotilla of Port-au-Prince to intercept Ships going from port to port, and to bring them to Port-an-Prince for their sqfciy. Therefore I had reasons to apprehend that the. interests of my co-partners would be exposed by some of my Ships being intercepted by that very Flotilla, which was at the time hovering (in the coast for that very purpose. The President of Hayti, HEN Or Cut; rsToruc, wished particularly to keep the Northern coat clear of all EneMy's Privateers, and, above ail, to proteCt free from insult the. British trade in his dominions. He determined to employ for that,obje4t his new acquisition, the Brig Young Boseial, !gni called l o e Poudroyout and be fitted her for a cruizo in the Tortuga Channel, with two armed Schooners of his, the "towel-Garde, and las Province du Nord. Captain M'CuLLoou, of the Hopewell, volunteered his services on the occasion, as every loyal British Subjea o ught to do, when the proteakn of British property, the honour of the British Flag, and the interests of his principaht, are immediately exposed. The Expedition sailed in con. sequence from Cape -.Francais. on the Ist February, in the view of securing the safety of the Ships Ann, Aie.rander, Ben Lumcesd, Elizabeth, and iyiug at or b o und t o G ona i ves an d St. Marc. In the first place, it was necessary to take the Island of Tor tuga, their principal rendezvous. Five hundred troops were put on board the squadron, landed the same day, took possession of the island, and then proceeded in search of PaTioN's Squadron. On the they met with the Flotilla of Periow et Jean Rabel, in the Channel of Tortuga, consisting of two large strmed Schooners, the Constitution and the protetled hy a fort and 'come land-troops. After a eonfie of several hours, the Constitutson Wag blown up, dler having been manned, ive times from the shore ! and the Guerriere, after having been run on shore, was burnt., The other craft took to their oars and escaped. The loss on the side of Pa- ZION eXe4eded SOO men ; (211 the side of CNRISTO• Pilk:s Squadron, it would have been trifling, had it not been fOr the loss of the brave M 4 Cut.Locir. Expedition being over, the Channel cleared, ate the cutUrounication opened between the North. ein MA Western parts, it became necessary teelear the communication Laymen St. Mares • and Gu haives. This was easily eftiLled; his batei were all taken, a Dispatch from the Mole to Port-au/Prue` intercepted, and a principal Officers the bearer, killed in the affair. Mr. PBTION'S friends want to know the situation of, the country ;- I will give it them from that very DisOatch.--But my letter is already at considerable length, and I reserve this part of my statement for another letter, in which I will contrast the one party with the other, and explain ; the real side ora country which has means of employing the manu faCturers of Great Britain in the present stagnation of trade.

General St Leger was highly gratified at his inspec tion this morning of his Majesty's s3d Regiment. Its very general good appearafico, variedness of movements, and very exc client adv Alice in line, with the etfi,iency of its selt-formed artn do great credit to Lieut.-Colonel Mawby, the Of.._ firers and Men of that respeitable Corps.

Mr. Andrews, the Surgeon, who is appointed by the Magistrates to attend hcr, appeared at the Office, before Mr. Reit), and stated that he did not consider the girl to be in s a proper state to attend the office to give - evidence against the Prisoner; in consequence of which, ibtit,examii,a tion was postponed to a future day,..l.Vbeta the girl, it is hoped, will be able to attend. The young man who is in custody for uttering an altered one-pound Bunk note, at tite Cecil-street Coffee-house, .-was 'fully cotntuitted for trial. On the .QsLii of last month, a woman, genteelly dressedi went to the shop of Mr. Thomp,nn; in New -street, Covent-Garden, and purchased linen to the amount of li. Los. in payment for which she tendered a 51. vote, purporting to bu an Ipswich and Suffolk Bank note; he hesitated taking it, observing, he did not like to take country bank notes ; but the woman appearing respectable, and readily giving her name and , address, which she said was Taylor, at No. 15, Paddington, and the 1, note being payable in London, heat length gave her change. _ The following day he took the note, as die&ed, for payment, to St. Michael's-alley, Cornhifl, but found the house shut up, and could not learn what had become of the people who lived in it. He then went as directed by the woman to the sup posed resiaente, hut could not find any such per son. On Wednesday he saw the woman in the street, and had her taken into custody, and con veyed to Bow-street Office, .where she underwent an examination, and was committed for a -further examination. _ _ _ It seems there has bee 9, and is still in circulation, a number of these notes. Two men were tried a short time since for uttering them, and acquitted, they proving in their„defence, that the notes were signed by " Ralph Widen," and that there was such a man, although he could not be found. The Jude, who tried them, of course determined that it was not a forgery, nor a fraud, as the man who took the notes did it at his own risk, and the party had not used due precaution to ascertain whe ther the notes were good or not, and that the ease was only a matter of debt due from Ralph Malden to the holder of them, the Prisoner not having used an)i persuasive language to the Prosecutor to induce him to take them, or to assure him of their good ness, which would make it a traud. It will depend entirely upon the language that passed between this woman and Mr. Thompson, when she uttered the note, upon the trial, whether it will be deemed a fraud or not. MANSION-HOUSE, APRIL 21.-11!oses Francis was dharged by Abraham Levy with stealing several articles of wearing apparel, amounting to VOL out of his lodgings. It appeared that both the Pr!sutler and Prosecutor were Jews, natives of Poland, and came to this country twice a year to buy old clothes. In summer they bought articles lit for winter, and in winter those fit for summer, and at the end of each season they returned- to Poland. Neither of them could speak English sufficiently to be under stood. P. famous pugilist attended as interpreter..-. Levy stated, that about two weeks back he went to the casuistry. He locked his room door, and brought up his landlady to see-that It was secure, and told het he the room as much in nig posses sion as if he actually slept in it, and that when he came, back from the country, he ts ould pay what ever rent was due, which she - agreed to. Whilst he was gone, the Prisoner was seen coming out of his room. He also was a lodger in the house. His landlady hearing of it, sent for a watchman, who took the Prisoner to the watch-house; he produced a key to the officer of the watch, and said the Wit ness had left it with him to look atter his goods, and the key. being tried to the lock of the door, and opening it, ho was discharged. On the Witness re turtling to town, he found wearing apparel to the amountof eel. gone. The Prisoner absconded, and was not taken into custody until yesterday, when the key 'he had pro duced'at the watch-house .was found on him, but none of the wearing apparel has yet been found. The LORD MAYOR remanded him for further exa mination, and desired the officers to seek for the goods stolen. Imagination could not piattre two more grotesque figures, they were dressed in the fashion of their country, with extretnolong , black beards, and skull caps. Moue, the boy who was examined on Wednes day on a charge of: robbing his masters Mr. Morris, a pawn-broker and jeweller, of several diamond trinkets, &c. was yesterday brought up fbr re-es amination. In addition to what was stated on Wed nesday, it appeared from the further statement of Mr. Mortis, that the youngster was in the habit of indulging his palate every day at the shops of the neighbouring pastry-cooks with pastries, jellies, bine mange, ice-creams, and other dainties, at his master's expence, frequently to the amouet of half• a-crown per clay, and that he usually- , had a bon. bouche of AVestphalia ham to stimulate his appetite for breakfast, and in the course of the day usually took, a few glasses of Port wine to cheer his spirits, and support him under the fatigues of his occupa tion. He had complied with the injunclion of the, Loan MAYOR tin Wednesday, by furnishing a cata logue of all his thefts, during the seven weeks of his employment, which influenced the mind of his master to lenity, and he signified his readiness to withdraw the prosecution, on mutation of the youngster being sent to sea. To thin the boy gladly assented, and the Loan MAYOR accordingly utdered him t; be taken on board the Tender. GUILDHALL—Thomas Ifibad, and Elizabeth his wife, charged on Wedncsduy, first with having rob bed a poor woman of some gouts the husband was employed to cart to her lodgings in Blackfriars% and alio with having some coining implements found in their custody, were, yesterday breue,ht up for re 40"minatinn, whet) it appeared, on the teminlony of Leadhestto si • an d the other Police Officer who searched' the Prisonets' room in Robin Hood-court, Shoo-lane,, that •they found there in a box, which the Prisoner, acknowledged l c e o dy n tl g to 1e his property, va- en is fur counterfeit money, such ns crucibles, aqua-fortis, - composition for giving the appcatauce tit/ silver to bus ruatal, aoctal picbes .1 6.itting otit and giV'ing en i in;p42.'nOo .L!ua,khillings atatitpences ;.

The Prlsoners .could give no ptisfaeory account how they came by the coining implements. The Sulicitor tbr the Mite attended, and the Prig sours were remanded for further examination on Wednesday next: th4tON-HALL.--Yesterday J, Casey was brought up,. charged on suspicion of stealing a quantity o lead belonging to Xr.

[lfni young girl, in the service of Mr. Keene. It appeared by the statement ot theyoung girl, that on Sunday morning last, during the absence of the fa mily, he came to h p er matter's house, and then finding her alone, attempted by lotto to violate her chastity ; but fortunately she was enabled, frotti the struggles she made, to extricate herself from him before he succeeded in accomplishing his wish;.... The fa& being clearly proved, he was' held to bail, in conjunction with two sureties, for his appearance to answer to the above charge at the next Quarter Sessions. . - _ . , l i iCKPOCK wrs.-.‘-On Sa tnrday, about t welveo'cleCk s as Lieut. Kelly, of his Majesty's Ship the Triumph, was posing along Holborn, near Middle-raw, he was surrounded by one of those daring gangs of pickpockets who still infest the streets of London, and robbed of his pocket-hook, containing sank Notes to the amount of 4501. and naval papers of considerable importance. It is Supposed the villains effeaed the robbery in the following manner : 7 --One of them trod 1.1;:on his heel, and on his turning about, appeared very polite ly to beg his pardon ; while this pretended apology was making, it caused Lieutenant Kay to stop a little, and he found himself surrounded by four , or five men, and soon atter missed his pocket-book.— The papers it contained consisted of the testimonial* from , the different Admirals he had terved under, letters of recommendation, his commission, and other papers of importance. He has been in a very low desponding way ever since, .in consequence of the robbery . • We understand some Gentlemen are' aboilt to • establish a Society; by subscription, to reward the Officers of the Police for the apprehension of pick pockets and other robbers, for whom no. re ward is allowed, by Ati of Parliament ; the condita Of the pickpockets, in particular, have been so very . daring the last few years, 'that no person can WOK London streets in any degree , of safety even at m,d-' day: EXTRAORDINARY PEDESTRIANISAI.--Jt Vii been stated that a Mr. Paul had, matched himself for too guineas On the first event, and 50 guineas on the second, to go from Knightsbridge to a spot near Windsor, in two hours and a half, a distance of something more. than 20 miles, and to return to • Knightsbridge in three hour', within twelve hours.
